cgit.mk: don't rebuild everything if CGIT_VERSION changes

If CGIT_VERSION is in CGIT_CFLAGS then a change in version (for example
because you have committed your changes) causes all of the CGit objects
to be rebuilt.  Avoid this by using EXTRA_CPPFLAGS to add the version
for only those files that are affected and make them depend on VERSION.
